SHS 120x120x12.5 Tata Steel Celsius · Weight & Dimensions

Tata Steel Celsius · Square Hollow Section

Square Hollow Sections (SHS) are tubular profiles with equal sides, ideal for columns and compression members due to their uniform buckling resistance in all directions.

Also known as: PTR 120x120 (México) · Caño estructural 120x120 (Argentina)

The SHS 120x120x12.5 steel profile weighs 40.9 kg/m (27.48 lb/ft), has a depth of 120 mm (4.72 in), flange width 120 mm (4.72 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,106.748 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 961.999 cm⁴, Iy = 961.999 cm⁴.
